DAVIE -- The Dolphins, content with their wide receivers, would welcome back Oronde Gadsden but won't sign a mid-level veteran, coach Dave Wannstedt said Thursday.
That means the Dolphins, who open their first minicamp today, don't plan to add a veteran receiver unless he's clearly better than what they have and even that is problematic because of salary-cap constraints, Wannstedt said.
"The worst thing we can do is sign a veteran like Marcus Robinson [who signed with Baltimore on Thursday] and bring them in and him not be a whole lot better than the young players we have," he said. "We wouldn't spend any money on anybody right now and take any chances."
The Dolphins are about $2.9 million under the salary cap after releasing Ray Lucas on Monday, but they will have to use some of that money to sign their draft picks
